Reaction (a) is carried out under conventional conditions, i.e. as arule using not less than an equimolar amount of the compound of theformula VIII in the presence of not less than an equimolar amount of abase as an acid acceptor, with or without the addition of an iodide as acatalyst if X is not iodine, advantageously in the presence of asolvent, at from 0° to 140° C., preferably from 30° to 100° C., ifappropriate at the boiling point of the reaction mixture, and underatmospheric or superatmospheric pressure. It is also possible todispense with the addition of a base, in which case it is advantageousto use not less than two equivalents of the compound of the formulaVIII.

Suitable solvents are those which are inert under the reactionconditions, such as aromatic hydrocarbons, e.g. toluene or xylene,aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons, e.g. methylene chloride, ethylenechloride or chlorobenzene, cyclic aliphatic ethers, e.g. tetrahydrofuranor dioxane, lower alkanols, e.g. methanol, ethanol or isopropanol,aliphatic ketones, eg. acetone, diethyl ketone or methyl ethyl ketone,or dialkylamides, e.g. dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidone.

Compounds I in which A, B and R² are each hydrogen and R¹ is nothydrogen (4,5-dihydro-3(2H)-pyridazinones) have an asymmetric carbonatom in the 5-position and are therefore normally obtained in the formof their racemates. The present invention also relates to theenantiomers; advantageously, resolution is effected at the stage ofcompound IX (if in this compound A, B and R² are each hydrogen) in aconventional manner, for example by formation of diastereomeric saltswith an optically active carboxylic acid, eg. dibenzoyltartaric acid orcamphor-10-sulfonic acid, and the enantiomers are obtained by separatereaction of the resulting optically active precursors.

Compounds of the formula I in which R³ is a substituted alkylene groupcan contain an asymmetric carbon atom in this alkylene chain. Thepresent invention also relates to the enantiomers, which can beseparated in a conventional manner, for example by formation ofdiastereomeric salts with an optically active carboxylic acid orsulfonic acid, or can be obtained by using appropriate optically activeprecursors, such as the compounds of the formulae VII, X and XI.

Furthermore, the compounds I can possess asymmetric carbon atoms in theamine moiety R⁴. They are preferably prepared starting from theoptically active amines VIII, by reaction with a compound VII or via theintermediates X or XI.

Compounds I in which R¹ and R² together form a methylene, ethylene,propylene or butylene group (3,4-diazabicyclo[4.1.0]heptenones,3,4-diazabicyclo[4.2.0]octenones, 3,4-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]nonenones and3,4-diazabicyclo[4.4.0]decanones) also form racemates, owing to thepresence of the asymmetric carbon atoms 1 and 6 of the3,4-diazabicyclo[4.n.0]alk-2-en-5-one ring. The present invention alsorelates to the enantiomers obtainable from these racemates.

In particular, the novel compounds of the formula I and their salts witha pharmaceutically tolerated acid inhibit thrombocyte aggregation andgastric secretion and have hypotensive and positively inotropicproperties.

The following methods were used to examine the pharmacodynamicproperties of the products according to the invention:

1. Inhibition of the collagen-induced aggregation of human thrombocytesin vitro.

Thrombocyte-rich plasma is obtained by centrifuging venous citrate blood(300 g, 10 minutes duration at 4° C.). Photometric measurement of thethrombocyte aggregation is carried out with the addition of MgCl₂ (finalconcentration 10 millimoles/liter) and of collagen Stago (finalconcentration 0.02 mg/ml) in a Born Mk 3 aggregometer. The maximumextinction change/sec. is used as a measure of the aggregation.

The aggregation-inhibiting activity of the substances is tested after anincubation time of 10 minutes.

The EC 50% is taken to be the concentration causing 50% inhibition ofaggregation.

2. Hypotensive action on anesthetized rats.

To test the hypotensive effect, the substances are administeredintraperitoneally or intravenously to groups of 3-5 male Sprague-Dawleyrats weighing 240-280 g, under urethane anesthesia (1.78 mg/kg,administered intraperitoneally).

The measurement of the blood pressure in the carotid artery is carriedout by means of Statham transducers. The ED 20% is determined as thedose which lowers the mean carotid blood pressure by 20%.

3. Inhibition of gastric secretion

Inhibition of the secretion of gastric acid results in an increase inthe pH of the gastric mucous membrane. It is investigated on groups of 4female Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 160-180 g. The animals fast for 48hours (water ad libitum), and are pretreated with various doses(administered orally). After 1 hour, they are anesthetized with Nahexabarbital (46.4 mg/kg, administered intravenously), after which a pHelectrode (Philips type CJP special electrode) is introduced into thestomach and the pH on the surface of the gastric mucous membrane ismeasured (pH for untreated animals: 1.40±0.002; N=200). The ED 0.75, ie.the dose which increases the pH by an average of 0.75 compared withuntreated control animals, is determined from the linear regressionbetween the logarithms of the doses administered and of the increase inpH.

In these tests, the novel substances are effective in very low doses.

Accordingly, the present invention also relates to therapeutic agents orformulations which, in addition to conventional pharmaceuticalexcipients and diluents, contain a compound of the formula I or its saltas an active compound, and to the use of these compounds for therapeuticpurposes.

The therapeutic agents or formulations can be prepared in a conventionalmanner by compounding an appropriate dose with the conventionalexcipients or diluents and the conventionally used pharmaceuticalauxiliaries, in accordance with the desired route of administration.Suitable doses for man are from 0.1 to 100 mg, oral administration beingpreferred.

Examples of suitable forms for oral administration are tablets, filmtablets, coated tablets, capsules, pills, powders, solutions,suspensions or depot forms.

For practical use, the compounds employed according to the invention areformulated with the excipients conventionally used in pharmaceuticalproduction. For example, appropriate tablets can be obtained by mixingthe active compound with conventional auxiliaries, for example inertdiluents, such as dextrose, sugar, sorbitol, polyvinylpyrrolidone,mannitol, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or lactose,disintegrating agents, eg. corn starch, alginic acid orpolyvinylpyrrolidone, binders, eg. starch or gelatine, lubricants, eg.magnesium stearate or talc, and/or agents for achieving a depot effect,eg. carboxypolymethylene, carboxymethylcellulose, cellulose acetatephthalate or polyvinyl acetate. The tablets can also consist of aplurality of layers (cf. H. Sucker et al, Pharmazeutische Technologie,Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1978).

Accordingly, coated tablets may be prepared by coating cores, preparedsimilarly to the tablets, with agents conventionally used in tabletcoatings, eg. polyvinylpyrrolidone, shellac, gum arabic, talc, titaniumdioxide or sugar. The tablet shell can also consist of several layers,in which the auxiliaries mentioned above in connection with the tabletsmay be used.

The Examples which follow illustrate the preparation of the novel6-(acylaminoaryl)-3(2H)-pyridazinones.

EXAMPLE 1

5.8 g (20 millimoles) of6-[p-(3-chloropropionylamino]-4,5-dihydro-3(2H)-pyridazinone werestirred with 3.5 g (25 millimoles) of potassium carbonate and 2.17 g (25millimoles) of morpholine in 50 ml of dimethylformamide for 8 hours at80° C. 500 g of ice/water were added, after which the crystals werefiltered off under suction and recrystallized fromdimethylformamide/water. The product was dried under greatly reducedpressure at 50° C. to give 5.4 g (82%) of6-[p-3-(1-morpholino)-propionylaminophenyl]-4,5-dihydro-3(2H)-pyridazinoneas colorless crystals of melting point 183°-185° C.

The compounds of Examples 2 to 104 were prepared similarly to Example 1.If the compounds are obtained in the form of oils, they can be purifiedby extraction with methylene chloride and/or column chromatography oversilica gel or alumina using a methylene chloride/methanol mixture as themobile phase.

EXAMPLE 118

4.0 g (10 millimoles) of6-[p-(3-(4-phenylpiperid--1-yl)-propionylamino)-phenyl]-4,5-dihydro-3(2H)-pyridazinonein 15 ml of ethanol were refluxed with 1.5 ml of 37% strength formalinsolution and 40 ml of 4% strength ethanolic KOH for 3 hours. Insolublematerial was filtered off under suction, after which the mother liquorwas evaporated down and the product was recrystallized from isopropanol.2.2 g of6-[p-(3-(4-phenylpiperid-1-yl)-propionylamino)-phenyl]-4-methyl-3(2H)-pyridazinonewere obtained as pale beige crystals of melting point 239°-240° C.
